4. What Happens If You Do Not Provide Information

In many situations, providing personal information is voluntary.

However, some information is necessary for us to provide particular services.

For example, if you do not provide your:

• name;

• delivery address;

• contact details; or

• information required to process payment,

we may not be able to process or deliver your order.

If information is required to investigate a return, delivery issue or customer-service request and you choose not to provide it, we may be unable to fully investigate or resolve the matter.

5. How We Collect Personal Information

We may collect personal information:

Directly From You

For example when you:

• browse or shop on our website;

• place an order;

• create an account;

• join a mailing list;

• contact us;

• submit a return or refund request;

• enter a promotion; or

• submit a review or other content.

Automatically

Some information is collected automatically when you use our website through cookies and similar technologies.

From Service Providers

We may receive information from organisations that help us operate Printlits, including:

• Shopify;

• payment providers;

• courier and delivery providers;

• ecommerce technology providers;

• fraud-prevention and security providers;

• analytics providers; and

• marketing providers.

From Other Sources

In limited circumstances, we may lawfully collect personal information from another person, organisation or publicly available source.

Where the Privacy Act requires us to notify you about information collected indirectly, we will take reasonable steps to ensure you are informed about:

• the fact that the information was collected;

• why it was collected;

• who may receive it;

• who collected and holds it;

• any relevant legal authority for the collection; and

• your rights to access and request correction of the information.

6. Shopify

Our online store is hosted and powered by Shopify.

Shopify collects and processes personal information when you visit or interact with our store in order to provide ecommerce, payment, security, analytics and related services.

Information you provide through our website may therefore be transmitted to and processed by Shopify and its service providers.

Where Shopify Network Intelligence or other Shopify Enhanced Services are enabled, Shopify may also use information about interactions with Printlits together with information from interactions with Shopify and other Shopify merchants to provide features such as:

• personalised shopping experiences;

• improved fraud protection;

• analytics;

• store performance improvements; and

• more relevant advertising.

Shopify may process this information in countries outside New Zealand.

For more information about Shopify's own processing of personal information and privacy rights relating to Shopify, please refer to the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy and Shopify Privacy Portal.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels and similar technologies to operate and improve the website.

These technologies may be used for purposes such as:

Essential Functions

To:

• operate the shopping cart;

• remember preferences;

• enable checkout;

• keep accounts secure; and

• maintain essential website functionality.

Analytics

To understand:

• how visitors reach our website;

• which pages and products are viewed;

• how visitors navigate the site; and

• how our website performs.

Personalisation

To remember preferences and provide a more relevant shopping experience.

Advertising and Marketing

Where enabled and permitted, cookies or similar technologies may help us or our advertising partners measure advertising performance or show more relevant advertising.

Where consent is required, we will use appropriate privacy controls or cookie-consent tools.

You may also be able to control cookies through your browser settings, although blocking essential cookies can affect website functionality.

8. Marketing Communications

We may send you marketing emails or other commercial electronic communications where you have consented to receive them or where otherwise permitted by law.

Marketing communications will identify the sender and include a way to unsubscribe.

You can withdraw your consent to marketing at any time by using the unsubscribe function provided in the message.

Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent us from sending non-promotional communications necessary to manage an order, transaction, product safety issue or customer-service request.

9. Who We May Share Personal Information With

We do not disclose personal information without a lawful purpose.

We may provide personal information to organisations that help us operate our business, including:

Shopify

To host and operate our ecommerce store and provide related services.

Payment Providers

To authorise and process payments and prevent fraud.

Delivery and Shipping Providers

To arrange collection, transport, tracking and delivery of your order.

This may include providing information such as your name, delivery address, email address or phone number where necessary for delivery.

Technology and Hosting Providers

To host data, operate systems, provide website functionality or support our business systems.

Analytics and Marketing Providers

Where used, to analyse website performance, measure advertising or deliver marketing services.

Professional Advisers

Such as accountants, lawyers, insurers or other advisers where reasonably necessary.

Government or Regulatory Authorities

Where disclosure is required or permitted by law.

Business Transactions

If Araisy Limited or part of its business is sold, reorganised or transferred, relevant personal information may be disclosed as part of that transaction where lawful and appropriate.

We require service providers handling personal information on our behalf to handle it appropriately and only for authorised purposes.

10. Overseas Processing and Disclosure

Some of our service providers, including Shopify and other technology providers, may store or process personal information outside New Zealand.

Where an overseas organisation acts only as our agent for storage or processing, different Privacy Act rules may apply than where information is disclosed for that organisation's own purposes.

Where Information Privacy Principle 12 applies to an overseas disclosure, we will take reasonable steps to ensure the disclosure complies with New Zealand privacy law.

This may include satisfying ourselves that the recipient:

• is subject to appropriate privacy obligations;

• provides safeguards comparable to those required under New Zealand law;

• is contractually required to protect the information appropriately; or

• otherwise meets an applicable legal basis for the disclosure.

11. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against:

• loss;

• unauthorised access;

• misuse;

• disclosure;

• alteration; and

• destruction.

We use Shopify and other reputable service providers to operate significant parts of our ecommerce infrastructure.

However, no website, communications system or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You should avoid sending sensitive information through insecure communication channels where it is not necessary.

12. Privacy Breaches

If we become aware of a privacy breach, we will assess the breach and take reasonable steps to contain and respond to it.

Where a privacy breach has caused or is likely to cause serious harm, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner where required under the Privacy Act 2020.

13. How Long We Keep Personal Information

We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably required for the purposes for which it may lawfully be used.

Retention periods may vary depending on:

• the type of information;

• whether an account remains active;

• customer-service requirements;

• warranty or product issues;

• tax and accounting requirements;

• fraud prevention;

• legal obligations; and

• actual or potential disputes.

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we may securely delete, destroy or de-identify it.

14. Accuracy of Information

We take reasonable steps to ensure personal information used by us is accurate, current, complete, relevant and not misleading for the purpose for which it is being used.

Please contact us if your information changes or you believe information we hold about you is incorrect.

15. Your Right to Access Personal Information

Under the Privacy Act 2020, you may request confirmation of whether Araisy Limited holds personal information about you and request access to that information.

Some limited exceptions may allow or require us to withhold information.

We may need to verify your identity before releasing personal information.

16. Your Right to Request Correction

You may ask us to correct personal information that you believe is inaccurate, incomplete, out of date or misleading.

If we do not make the correction you request, you may ask us to attach a statement of the correction sought to the information where required under the Privacy Act.

Where reasonably practicable, corrections may also be communicated to organisations to whom the incorrect information was previously disclosed.

17. Deletion and Other Requests

New Zealand privacy law does not provide an unrestricted right to require deletion of all personal information.

However, you may ask us to delete information.

Where we no longer have a lawful or necessary reason to retain the information, we may be able to delete or de-identify it.

We may need to retain certain information to:

• comply with legal obligations;

• maintain transaction records;

• resolve disputes;

• prevent fraud; or

• establish or defend legal claims.

If privacy laws in another jurisdiction apply to you, you may have additional rights under those laws.

18. Children

Printlits products may appeal to children, but our online store is intended to be used for purchases by adults or with the involvement of a parent or guardian.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information directly from children where it is not necessary.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided personal information to us inappropriately, please contact our Privacy Officer so we can review the situation.

19. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or platforms.

Those organisations control their own privacy practices and may have privacy policies that differ from ours.

We recommend reviewing the privacy information of any third-party service before providing personal information to it.

20. Complaints

If you have a concern about the way we have handled your personal information, please contact our Privacy Officer first so we can investigate and attempt to resolve the issue.

You may also have the right to make a complaint to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner in New Zealand.

21. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to:

• our business;

• our website;

• the services we use;

• our privacy practices; or

• applicable law.

When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date shown at the top of this policy.

Where required, we will provide additional notice of material changes.
